Because of the
increased reporting of incidents of abuse in the Jewish and general press, it is no longer possible to maintain a list of
such articles. In addition to daily papers in major cities, the following periodicals can be useful in searches:

The Journal of Religion and Abuse, Haworth Pastoral Press includes articles about Jewish issues. See www.HaworthPress.com for complete index of articles.

Those articles marked with ** are the most comprehensive.
Articles printed in bold are particularly useful resources.
